Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Poor Excuse for a Multi-Band Radio I purchased this radio about a year ago and was VERY disappointed with its functions. VERY difficult to tune in AM, FM, or short wave. The only thing this radio is good for is the alarm feature and for $50 I could have purchased a much better alarm. DO NOT waste your money on this one. Rating: - This product is a waste of money!!! This radio only can tune in stations via an old-school tuning knob, making it a MAJOR pain to go from one station to another!!! It has NO preset capability!!! And what "genius" decided to NOT include a power cord??? I would've had to shell out $25 extra at Radio Shack just to be able to plug this freakin' thing in!!! You're better off getting this model: Sangean PT-80 AM/FM Professional Digital Stereo LW/SW Shortwave World Band Travel Radio It has preset capablity, auto tuning, an included power cord, and an optional antenna to improve shortwave reception. You'll get more bang for you buck when you get this model. Rating: - This radio has the worst reception of all the radios Pros: The radio looks nice and expensive. Cons: The reception is so poor, that my $15 Radio Shack radio picks up better. This will be the last time I purchase a cheap Chinese knock off.
